draining kiss is not really necessary on gardevoir anyway, why are you running it? I want a way to heal my Gardevoir in Battle Colosseum, and heal it without potions(get a wild encounter, use draining kiss, exit) I get that you want Gardevoir to heal but a mega or non-mega Gardevoir without any bulk investment shows no value in having to run a healing move. You'd still die easily or instead of being able to fire off a much more valuable move in situations. You can always get a wish passer/healing wish user instead. (this is in Battle Colosseum context)

I do get what you mean by being able to run a healing/damaging move for adventure mode though, at least. But I would say that in all honesty you shouldn't be mixing competitive and adventure movesets together.
